Sunny Sunday
It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in a Dallas Wal-Mart parking lot. We went out on sankirtan and 14 people bought Srila Prabhupada's books.

His name is Francisco. He came back an hour later and was asking me questions about what he'd read. While we were talking a friend of his came by. He called her over and asked me to present a book to her. After the presentation...
